Notes | |||
"This organic Gutswein belongs to the most important wines of our family winery. It is a unique Terroir mix of 55 Sauvignon blanc parcels mainly grown on mineralic limestone soil. The grapes have been selectively harvested by hand. The low yields in combination with optimal vineyard management ensure high physiological ripeness of the grapes. The fantastic vintage 2020 is inspired by complexity and deep citric flavours. Ripe pears blended with aromatic elderberries. A mix of air and time reveal spicy cassis on the palate." —winemaker |
Critical Acclaim | |||
"Although this is a bit shy at first, it blossoms with aeration, a wide spectrum of citrus aromas emerging, plus some quince and wild herbs. Complex texture on the medium-to full-bodied palate, the chalky acidity beautifully integrated at the long finish. From organically grown grapes. Drink or hold. Glass closure." —James Suckling |
